Plenty Of Time

歌詞

Dear Aunt Alice, Why should I marry him? My heart's young; I keep it free. Oh, Aunt Alice, There's always time enough; Then she smiled, and took my hand, And she said to me: When I was just a young thing, I can recall, I dreamt of seeing Paris in fall, And London in the springtime; Oh, I'd see it all; I'd see it all someday. For I had, Plenty of time, Plenty of time; Why should I worry? Yes, I had, Plenty of time, Plenty of time; What was the hurry? When I was still a young thing, Love was for fun, Kisses and laughter, then it was done. Yes, when the game was over, Swiftly I'd run; Oh, how I'd run away. For I had, Plenty of time, Plenty of time; Why should I worry? Yes, I had, Plenty of time, Plenty of time; What was the hurry? But a world that's right can soon go wrong; And I guess I waited much too long; For I've never been to Paris, Or to London in the spring; And that love that I, I intended to choose, The years just refused to bring. And now it suddenly seems That I've run out of dreams I can hold on to. Once I had, Plenty of time, Oh, plenty of time; Where has it gone to? Dear Aunt Alice, I think I'll marry him, All too soon, it's all too late. Yes, Aunt Alice, There's never time enough. Let me hold my love today, And let tomorrow wait.
